Enzymes allow viruses to insert their genetic materials into the host cells DNA how does the virus benefit from this action?
The virus benefits because by incorporating its genetic material into the host cell's DNA, it can hijack the host cell's machinery to replicate itself. This allows the virus to produce more viral particles and spread to other cells or hosts.
How do virus benefit from inserting their genetic material into a host cell?
It all depends on the virus. It may be a lytic or a lysogenic infection. In a lytic infection, the virus inserts its DNA into host cell and replicate itself until the cell bursts and releases the new copies to infect other host cells. In a lysogenic infection, the virus inserts its DNA and gains control over the host cell, shutting it down and makes copies of itself like lytic infection, but the host cell does not burst.
What is the specific host cell of the West Nile Virus?
The specific host cell for West Nile Virus is the neuronal cell in the central nervous system. Once inside these cells, the virus can replicate and cause damage, leading to neurological symptoms in infected individuals.
Which stage of bacteriophage replication involves the bursting of the host cell so that the virus particles are free to infect others?
This is the last stage and it is called viral shedding. After a virus has made many copies of itself, it usually has used up the cell resources. The host cell is now no longer useful to the virus and the cell often dies.
How are the steps in the infection of an animal cell by a virus different from the infection of a bacterial cell by a virus?
Infection of an animal cell by a virus typically involves the virus attaching to specific receptors on the cell surface, entering the cell through endocytosis or direct fusion, replicating using host cell machinery, and then releasing new viruses by budding or cell lysis. In contrast, infection of a bacterial cell by a virus (called a bacteriophage) usually involves the phage injecting its genetic material into the bacterium, hijacking the bacterial machinery to replicate, and then causing lysis of the bacterial cell to release new phages.
What is usually larger a cell or a virus?
Cell.
What is the benefit of having the sickle cell trait?
They can not contract malaria.
How does a lytic virus kill a host cell?
A lytic virus kills a host cell by replicating inside the cell, causing it to burst, releasing new virus particles that can infect other cells. This process usually leads to the death of the host cell.

Where can I get a Drawing of a virus cell?
No where. A virus is not a cell.

What does a cell and virus have in common?
What a cell and a virus have in common is the RNA or DNA. The virus can be either a RNA virus or a DNA virus.
The cell infected by a virus is referred to as the?
The cell infected by a virus is referred to as the host cell. The virus hijacks the host cell's machinery to replicate and produce more virus particles.

Enveloped viruses are released from the host cell by?
Enveloped viruses are typically released from the host cell by budding, where the virus takes a portion of the host cell membrane as its envelope. This process does not usually cause cell lysis. Instead, the newly formed virus particles are released gradually from the cell.
